E.g. * if page == my_resume then create resume menu else if page == my_gallery then create gallery menu * I would like to change the sidebar contents with every page. * Forum: [Themes and Templates](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/themes-and-templates/) In reply to: [changing whole theme width](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/changing-whole-theme-width/) * Thread Starter [aaronws](https://wordpress.org/support/users/aaronws/) * (@aaronws) * [21 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/changing-whole-theme-width/#post-200251) * ok, so I went the easiest route on this one. I found a theme with a width of 800 and I just reduced the size of my graphics. I spent a few hours playing with the CSS and 30 seconds resizing graphics, I can live with the 800 width for saving that much time. * When I have more time, I will try the suggestions listed. * Thank you for your time to all of those that replied. * Forum: [Themes and Templates](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/themes-and-templates/) In reply to: [changing whole theme width](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/changing-whole-theme-width/) * Thread Starter [aaronws](https://wordpress.org/support/users/aaronws/) * (@aaronws) * [21 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/changing-whole-theme-width/#post-200153) * cool, lesson learned =) * ah wow, never even knew about pastebin, that is awesome. I am into other development and never really had a taste or patience for web development and do not know the first thing about desinging CSS sheets. I would prefer to code in C than mess with HTML. The names in the CSS make logical sense, but how everything fits together, I am little lost and do not have time to sit down and learn it. * Forum: [Themes and Templates](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/themes-and-templates/) In reply to: [changing whole theme width](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/changing-whole-theme-width/) * Thread Starter [aaronws](https://wordpress.org/support/users/aaronws/) * (@aaronws) * [21 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/changing-whole-theme-width/#post-200144) * Just curious, what is the difference between downloading a theme and modifying it and modifying the default theme? * Ok, so I snagged a theme that looks cool and there is the CSS. What am I to modify to make this thing 965px wide throughout? * /* Theme Name: Amsterdam Nights Theme URI: [http://www.rollsroick.de/](http://www.rollsroick.de/) Description: You can have it here and now.
